What happens now

The count isn’t over

California certifies for weeks after election day. Here’s what’s still in motion.[2]

  • Counties keep counting daily. Late vote-by-mail postmarked by election day is accepted through June 9, and registrars process provisional and conditional ballots alongside it.
  • Signature cures close June 24. 7,054 ballots statewide are held for a voter to confirm a missing or mismatched signature before they can be counted.
  • Certification runs into July. Counties certify their canvass by July 2; the Secretary of State certifies the statewide results by July 11.

What’s what

The four kinds of unprocessed ballot

Categories used by the California Secretary of State in its Unprocessed Ballots Status report.[2]

Vote-by-mail
Ballots mailed to voters that have been returned but not yet processed. Typically the largest share of uncounted ballots in California in any given election.
Provisional
Issued at polling places when eligibility can't be confirmed on the spot. Counted after registration is verified.
Conditional
Same-day registration ballots — voters who register at the polls and cast a ballot in the same visit. Counted once the registration is processed.
Other
Damaged ballots being reconstructed, ballots requiring signature verification, and other miscellaneous categories that vary by county.
